Tuna Hot Dish

Old fashioned Tuna Hot Dish is a favorite family meal.

Tuna Hot Dish is a staple in most households. Everyone has their version of this classic dish. Although this dish is quite basic and easy to make, it really is a good comforting meal to enjoy.

For my version, I cook this on the stove top, no baking required. I like to make this on a cold rainy day, plus you probably have all the ingredients on hand to whip this up any day of the week.
